<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Good Evening Gentlemen,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>After a ridiculously long time and even more
ridiculous amount of effort, here are the results.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Some of you already saw the 222 and 50 mhz lists,
and now the 144 mhz list is done....more or less. I still have to go
back and fill in some data, as I encountered unstable conditions and a variety
of other issues (like machines at 30 over and no PL on clogging a frequency
where I needed to collect info on weaker machines) which left a few
gaps. None the less there are a whopping 250 entries!!!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Essentially, these lists represent every possible
machine on every possible "pair" that can be reached from my station under
"flat" conditions (no enhancement, no degradation) with all the leaves on the
trees. Obviously leaf-less conditions would show better results, as
would late night/early morning tests.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Test radio was the IC706MKIIG, and was done both
"normal" (internal preamp on) represented by the first number, and "enhanced"
(internal amp OFF, external amp ON) represented by the second number.
Obviously, for comparison purposes, for those of you without an external amp
and a normal radio, compare your results to the first number.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Interesting to me was how well the little stick
held it's own against the pair of yagis. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>My next step is to plot the signal points on a
map (for each band), connect all like signal level dots, and get a visual
representation of my signal footprint, it's shape and intensity. It will
be interesting to note the differences between the bands.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Okay, with no further ado, here is the
link:</FONT></DIV>

you all......</FONT></DIV>
